This week at Try it on Tuesday was to use peel offs,not easy!! i saw these cute elephants and immediately elephants never forget came to mind and being remembrance month i thought i'd use it as a theme as myfamily have all been in the forces,i coloured the tag with a swipe og tumbled glass,stuck the peel offs on and coloured them with copicsand the flowers in red to represent the poppies,added a British Legion poppy and red and black ribbons and my tag was done.I hope noone feels this is a frivoulas thing because it was certainly not meant as such,mydad served in the navy in the 2nd world war and had some horrible experiences which he very rarely speaks of,he lost brothers and friends as did so many and this is a tribute to them and all our service personel God Bless them all.
